Hale Tiki: Here ya go. Here's one with cheap thrift store glass that I think is totally tiki. My friend TikiRootsRocka (Mike) found the glass & asked me to make him a lamp. His request was "Dark Wood & Tribal. I did some router work to both side of each shape. I think I hit his request on the money. He was stoked when I gave it him at the last ITMP.

Assembled without electrical.
Electrical in & hanging up
Here are the last ones I posted hanging up.

Nice !! I appreciate the use of those mosaic candle holders. I see those things all over at the goodwill shops and it never occured to me that those would ever have a use to anyone other than candle holders, but you did a great job of combining them into hawaiian style lamps and really creating your own style. keep up the good work !!

HaleTiki: Thanks again for looking. Your right, some of them alone aren't much to look at. They have to be the right shape & color to be incorporated into a tiki design. I found a really cool one the other day but it was pink & purple. Even I couldn't see tiki in that one.

Tipsy McStagger: Thanks! I like looking for found objects to incorporate into a lamp design. The router work is becoming a passion for me too.

Someone else made the glass part.
And you can find em cheap at the thrift stores.
To make that yourself and try to make any money would be hard.

Dam the time spent with the router is long enough.

I wondered if that was the case... and yeah, time consuming enough just doing the router work.
